Horsetalk.co.nz Equine herpesviruses at times use indirect pathways to infect horses, review finds Share Most known EHVs are transmitted directly between individuals as a result of direct exposure to body fluids and aerosols. Indirect pathways may play an important role in the transmission of equine herpesviruses in both captivity and nature, according to the authors of a just-published review. Equine herpesviruses (EHVs) represent one of the most economically important disease agents of horses. Most known EHVs are transmitted directly between individuals as a result of direct exposu...

Study: Shared Water Sources Contribute To EHV Transmission Sponsored by: A study has found that equine herpesviruses are able to replicate in freshwater sources in the wild and remain infectious to spread among animals, especially during drought conditions. In the wild, many species of animal will congregate around freshwater sources to drink, potentially allowing for virus transmission between species. Drs.
